You may not be watching the Winter Olympics but I am really enjoying them. Almost everything about them is un-American. We don't know the athletes, not even our own. The events are not widely attended in the U.S. But they are amazing. To ski jump over 100 meters off a high launch is incredible bravery. This is the first time for women. Sarah Hendrickson of the U.S. is out of medal contention after being the prohibitive favorite before wrecking her leg twice last year. It's a miracle she is competing at all. I also enjoy watching the Scandinavian athletes This is their spotlight.
